About Terminal 2 Oro uosto terminalas

Terminalas 2 – tai tarptautinio oro uosto terminalas Guvahatyje, Asamo valstijoje, Indijoje, suplanuotas aptarnauti apie trylika milijonų keleivių per metus. Architektūra remiasi bambukinės orchidėjos tema: kolonos ir pakabinti žiedlapiai suformuoti iš bambuko stiebų, padengtų ugniai atsparia danga. Pasyviosios strategijos, tokios kaip saulės energijos optimizavimas, aukšto efektyvumo izoliacija ir apsaugos nuo saulės priemonės, didina energijos vartojimo efektyvumą. Dvigubo aukščio interjerai su stoglangiais ir atvykimo zonos miškas į vidų įneša dienos šviesos ir žalumos. Savitarnos registracija, greitas bagažo pridavimas ir elektroniniai vartai užtikrina sklandų keleivių srautą.

Production Technology: Guwahati International Airport integrates climatic responsiveness, contextual design and cultural identity. Passive strategies of solar optimization, high performance insulation and shading devices enhance energy efficiency. Double height skylit interiors and the Arrival Forest ensure daylighting and biophilic experience. Inspired by Assamese villages, programmatic elements like pond, amphitheatre, food and retail zones promote social interaction and cultural engagement.
Design Challenge: Challenges included designing for Assam’s humid subtropical climate with high rainfall requiring robust drainage waterproofing and mold resistant materials. Seasonal weather variations affected construction sequencing and material curing. Compressed timelines demanded efficient planning, modular construction and phased execution to meet deadlines without compromising safety quality or sustainability.
Research: Research for Guwahati International Airport design involved site and climate analysis, stakeholder consultations, and benchmarking global and regional airports. Passenger profiling and flow simulations informed spatial planning. Cultural integration drew on Assamese motifs, bamboo craft, and orchids. Sustainability strategies included passive cooling, rainwater harvesting, and renewable energy. Iterative design prototyping ensured compliance, safety, adaptability, and a strong regional identity.
Inspiration: The design concept of the Guwahati International Airport draws profound inspiration from the state of Assam. Bamboo, integral to daily life symbolises strength, sustainability, and resilience. The design combines these natural elements to create an architectural language that is organic, lightweight, and sustainable. Bamboo, integral to the daily life of North East India, symbolises strength, sustainability, and resilience.
